I made a pretty simple design, but I think it gives a pretty stunning effect for something so simple. I started with 2 coats of MBSW for the white nails and 2 coats of Ziv for the gold. Once dry, I lined up striping tape in a triangle and then inside the triangle and painted over it with Holly (the green) and carefully peeled off the tape. Then I lined up diagonal strips on the other nails and painted on the reds, Rekha and TSWLM.

The stripes came out perfect!!! Until I went to top coat! ARGGG My Seche failed me. NOoNoNooOO! I know, you can't see the red smears, because I'm crazed and went over the smears with a tiny tiny nail art brush and white.

I LOVEEEE THEEEESEEEEE! ugh, i know what you MEAN about your SV failing you. i hate that. i was sooo nervous when i topcoated my design for today that it would smear but thankfully it didn't. i have definitely gone over smears with a tiny nail art brush to fix them before, too!
